This pattern was originally published as Close Knit’s contribution to the 2015 Rose City Yarn Crawl, March 5 – 8, 2015 in Portland, Oregon.

Each shop’s pattern(s) will be available free with purchase at that shop during the Rose City Yarn Crawl.

After the Crawl, all patterns will also be available for download individually or as part of our 2015 eBook: Postcards from Portland: 2015 Rose City Yarn Crawl Pattern Collection.

Natural colors of yarn evoke light, warmth, and appreciation for beauty. The Portland Japanese Garden is the inspiration here. The beautiful arched bridges in the Japanese Garden inspired this crochet pattern and its name. Sori Bashi in Japanese means arched bridge.
